Maple French Toast –

Sofia – 4/5: This bagel looked and tasted exactly like french toast, warm, golden, sweet and dense. It’d be even better with a side of fruit. The cream cheese added that creamy buffer to balance out the cinnamon, and I thought the sugar sprinkled on top would be overwhelming, but I hardly noticed. This is better than pastries or most deserts because it’s filling, and not too rich. I’d absolutely order the Maple French Toast bagel again.

Bella – 2/5: This bagel wasn’t bad, but I’m more of a savory person. It was definitely sweet, but I didn’t catch much of the french toast flavor. It sorta just tasted like pure sugar. The cream cheese was a good cut to the sweetness, but overall, not my favorite. 

Cheesy Hash Brown – 

Sofia – 5/5: There was no doubt in my mind after taking the first bite, that this will fall into my top after school or late start snack rotation. Hash brown bites were crunchy, and paired great with the cheddar. I believe there were also hints of garlic, which gave it a really fresh quality. There was a lot of consistency in flavor which I appreciated, and the way everything was toasted on top to perfection made it look like something from my Instagram feed. This feels very Sunday morning brunch, savory, simple and homey. 

Bella: 3/5 Super good bite to it, the cream cheese was a great addition. With my bagel I need a solid crunch, and this definitely hit the spot. The flavor, however, was pretty bland. I tasted only the slightest hint of hash brown. In my opinion, this is nothing special. 

Cheddar Jalapeño – 

Sofia – 3.5/5: Immediately I could taste the jalapeño, which added a ton of flavor, and spice levels ended up being just right. The soft texture and cheesy crust were a nice combo, making it perfect for a breakfast or lunchtime sandwich. But, while I did enjoy these savory elements, overall, this bagel wasn’t really doing anything special for me. I’d order it again, but it’s not my first choice. 

Bella – 5/5: I absolutely devoured this bagel. I finished it and left no crumbs. It was crunchy, spicy and cheesy. The jalapeño on top is perfect. Adding cream cheese makes it taste like a jalapeno popper.”Dat my favorite!”

Spinach Florentine – 

Sofia – 2/5: You can tell by the rating that this bagel was —  to put it nicely —  not my favorite. The clump of what I’m assuming was once-frozen spinach which sat on top was awful. I couldn’t really taste the cheeses, and, overall, this was really chewy. I do tend to really like spinach in general, whether that be in omelets, smoothies, sandwiches, salads or by itself, which is why this was a surprise. Wouldn’t recommend.

Bella – 2/5 With it being room temperature the spinach and cheese became solid, giving it an unpalatable texture. The taste wasn’t horrible, but not exactly pleasant. Definitely the worst of the bunch, wouldn’t recommend it.
